That tally shattered the previous opening weekend record of $169.2 million set by "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2" last year. If you add in all global tickets sales, 'The Avengers' is already approaching the $700 million mark.

In this fan-created video, the intro is lovingly recreated using nothing but LEGO. Sadly, even in a LEGO-themed 'Game of Thrones' world, we bet Ned Stark still loses his head. Sniff!
